'The Dragon'

Day four is finished and we NOW have a show together! We have completed the main structure of the piece - now just to rehearse smaller things like transitions. The way it’s been devised this week: incorporating everyone’s strengths, bringing acting, movement and music in, is incredible. It’s been so full on, using every minute of the day, creating and trying new things. 

Completely and utterly exhausted but so extremely excited for the performance. Can’t wait for an audience to see our hard work! 
This has been my first year doing YT and such an amazing experience. I've loved working with brilliant directors and having the chance to meet and work with such a talented cast! 
Bring on the show x

David Copperfield Rehearsal Day Eight

It's safe to say that today has been one of the most tiring, yet rewarding, days at the Stables Theatre so far. My feet are aching, my entire body is overwhelmed with a sense of fatigue, however, this tiredness wasn't all for nothing. Throughout the course of the day we have run countless scenes, sometimes performing them for the very first time on stage, and other times reworking certain aspects of the scene, for example, to sort out staging, or to explore new ideas and concepts. The sheer amount of scenes we have run through today has given the cast, and crew, a sense of pride, as it gave us a visual representation of just how much hard work and effort we have put into this play over our time at the Stables. Although we've only been working on 'David Copperfield' for just over a week now, the strength of the bonds made between cast members are ones like friends who have known each other for decades. When acting, there has to be a sense of trust between all

In a few days we will be ready to take the stage, and show the public our interpretation of David Copperfield . The play has come together remarkably well, from just practising a few lines to a full play in just a few weeks. Although it has been quite a challenge, the rewards have made it all worthwhile. I have learnt new techniques and grown in confidence. Today we ran through the whole play. For the ensemble, Act One is where we are needed frequently, whereas in Act Two we are needed less. This allows the younger actors to gain experience from watching the main cast. This is my first time acting with 1066 Youth Theatre. Overall it has been a phenomenal experience. I have made new friends and learnt a lot. I would love to do it again next year and would recommend it to anyone. Photo by Peter Mould Eve Brownbill (Ensemble in David Copperfield )
